Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The Special Issue "Smart Sensor and Actuator Technology in Biomedical Systems" aims to show the latest advancements and research in the integration of smart sensors and actuators in biomedical applications. The main focus is on innovative technologies and solutions that enhance the functionality, efficiency, and reliability of biomedical systems. Given the breadth of applications of this topic, this Special Issue includes the development and application of cutting-edge sensors and actuators that improve diagnostic, therapeutic, and rehabilitation processes. The integration of TinyML can enhance the capabilities of these devices, making it possible to explore how miniature machine learning algorithms can be embedded in sensors and actuators for on-device data processing, enabling real-time health monitoring and decision-making without the need for extensive hardware. This Special Issue will present interdisciplinary approaches that combine elements of engineering, electronics, and bioinformatics to improve medical technology.
Contributions may cover, but are not limited to, the following:
- Biosensors for health monitoring;
- Wearable technology for patient care;
- TinyML integration on sensors;
- Sensors for deasese screening.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Applied Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2400 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
